Holm Hansen Munthe

Holm Hansen Munthe (1848 - 1898) was a Norwegian architect.

Between 1878 and 1885 he cooperated with Henrik Nissen. From 1889 he worked for the Holmenkol-Voxenkol-Selskabet, among others drawing the well-known Frognerseteren restaurant in the so-called dragon style. Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany, vacationing in Norway, noticed these buildings and commissioned the erection of similar buildings in Germany; however these buildings were destroyed in 1944.[1]

In 1898 Munthe was appointed city architect in Kristiania, but he died before actually assuming office.[1]
